That is what they rely on, Prudie. Don't beat yourself up about it.

I am waiting to see if the Native American is telling lies about serving his country. From what I have read about him that is possible...maybe inevitable.

Since this is clearly an example of the ability to send thousands of people off into a self-righteous rant to each other, I very much doubt it will have the legs to go beyond tomorrow, and certainly not as far as the gentleman concerned having is war record analysed and advised to the masses - they will have moved on to the next 'outrage' as I speak, so I fear you will be waiting in vain.
Prudie - // Well I'll certainly admit to being guilty of judging a book by its cover (and of being gullible). I saw this yesterday but only looked at the picture and read the text- and I'm pleased I was so wrong. OK? //

The internet is a fertile hunting ground for the profoundly michievious who spend their time teasing innocent strangers - we should all rise above it, and not involve ourselves in their nonsense.
I wondered about that Talbot. It was claimed he was a Vietnam Vet.
If he's 63 as alleged that would make him 15/16 when the last regular US troops left Vietnam.
Watch this space.
Spicerack - // Watch this space. //

Or not - as I pointed out, there will be another avalanche of this nonsense today, and this will be forgotten by now.
rightists have long been searching for evidence that he lied about serving in Vietnam. Unfortunately they haven't found any evidence that he made the claim at all.
This throws doubt on his claim and there's something in the Washington Post, but I can't access it. Someone else might be able to.

I have heard him make the claim.

Phillips is a liar and I believe he is also a fantasist.
//At around the 1:07 mark, Phillips stated, “…as a Vietnam veteran, I served in the United States Marine Corps from 1972 to 1976.”://

//According to multiple news accounts, the activist is 64 years old, which means he would have been 18 years old in 1973, the last year any U.S. combat units were stationed in Vietnam. Mr. Phillips also claims to be a Marine veteran, although the last Marine combat units left Vietnam in 1971. A careful reading of Mr. Phillips‘ own descriptions does not make clear if he ever set foot in Vietnam. Instead, he has used much more careful language claiming he is a “Vietnam times veteran,” an ambiguous phrasing that led many media accounts to conclude he was a combat veteran.//

Bogus Vietnam Veteran for sure.

Not the first time he has made false accusations against schoolkids either. He got a result with the first one and like all of his ilk thought it a good enough trick to repeat the exercise.

Was this film ever made?
Why didn't he correct the narrator when she said he was a marine in Vietnam?
It's hard to discover whether that particular one was made - it all stinks so far really.
Question Author
What stinks is that this boy has received death threats simply for being an awkward teenager who had no idea what to do when a lying old man walked up to him and started banging a drum in his face.

Despite even the likes of CNN back peddling the lunatic left refuses to see the truth and are still baying for blood.

I've said it before and I will say it again...It's an illness
Mobs on both sides have a tendency to latch on to something and never let go. It seems that's what's happened in this case. As soon as the video came out this was going to happen. I'm sorry for the boy in the video and hope his life isn't ruined by it.
You aren't wrong, it's too easy to believe the first report/video you read or see and I'm sure I have fallen for it more than one.

It pays to take a step back, research and check some facts, certainly something I am trying to do.

Never too old to learn, so they say.

Real soldiers don't like lying fakes I knew the truth would come out.

It is time this man fessed up and apologised.

ps
He and his motley crew had tried to enter a church whilst banging their drums...why?

But he also a criminal.


And yet...the Trump hating media are still trying to paint some high spirited young lads as racists and misogynists.

Yes I know you're not interested and it serves them right for wearing a hat...but here it is anyway.
